The Spring line of Puritan Muslin Garments is in stock in all the dainty trimmings. You will find our sales ladies as experienced and as painstaking as those of the largest stores. Besides you have the ever con vincing argument in your favor, that you must be treated fairly, as your local store depends entirely upon your return and what you tell your friends.
